Personalised Fitting and Advice

We take the time to get it right for you

When it comes to your eyes, one size does not fit all. That’s why our highly qualified team at Monnow Eyecare takes the time to understand your lifestyle, preferences and prescription before recommending the most suitable lens option for you.

We’ll talk you through how to insert, remove and care for your lenses so you feel confident from day one. Our goal is always to help you achieve the best possible vision with maximum comfort.

Patients regularly tell us how reassured and listened to they feel - and that’s exactly how it should be.

Multifocal Contact Lenses

Clear vision, near and far
‍
If you’ve been relying on reading glasses and distance correction, there’s a more convenient solution. Multifocal contact lenses are designed to correct both reading and distance vision at the same time - ideal for those who want more freedom without switching between specs.

Our experienced optometrists will advise if multifocals are right for you and support you through the fitting process so you get the clarity and comfort you deserve.

Scleral Lenses

These specialist lenses are ideal for people who may have struggled with glasses or regular contact lenses.

Scleral Lenses

At Monnow Eyecare, we take time to understand your eyes fully before recommending scleral lenses, ensuring each pair is carefully fitted and adjusted for your exact needs.

‍

Scleral lenses are large, rigid gas-permeable lenses designed to vault over the entire surface of the cornea, resting gently on the white of the eye (the sclera). This creates a smooth, protective
surface and a tear-filled chamber between the lens and the eye, helping to correct vision and provide lasting comfrt even in challenging conditions.

‍

They are often recommended for patients who:

‍

  • Have keratoconus or other irregular corneal shapes
  • Experience severe dry eye syndrome
  • Have had previous corneal surgery or trauma
  • Struggle with comfort or vision using regular soft or gas permeable lenses

Fitting scleral lenses takes time and care. At Monnow Eyecare,we offer a calm, unhurried experience with full guidance at every stage.

‍

Your appointment will include:

‍

  • A thorough examination and topography using our Myah scanner.
  • An in-depth conversation about your vision, comfort and lifestyle
  • Personalised lens fitting, with time for questions and trial wear
  • Follow-up appointments to fine tune the fit and ensure long-term success

Orthokeratology Lenses

Ortho-K lenses are specially designed contact lenses worn overnight that gently reshape the front surface of the eye while you sleep, allowing people with short-sightedness to enjoy clear vision throughout the day - without wearing glasses or daytime contact lenses.

‍

Ortho-K is also an established option in myopia
management, helping to slow the progression of short-sightedness in suitable children.

‍

Before fitting Ortho-K lenses, we carry out a detailed
assessment and topography of your eyes using MYAH Scanner to understand your eye shape and monitor changes over time. The lenses are individually designed to match your eyes and prescription. In many cases:

‍

  • Vision begins to improve within the first few nights
  • Most patients achieve their best correction within around 1–2 weeks
  • Regular overnight wear maintains clear daytime vision
  • Your optometrist will monitor your progress and make sure your lenses continue to provide the best possible fit and vision.

This makes Ortho-K a flexible and non-invasive option for managing your sight.

‍

Safety is a top priority at Monnow Eyecare. We provide full guidance on:

‍

  • Correct lens insertion and removal technique
  • Cleaning and storage routines
  • Recognising any concerns early
  • Regular follow-up appointments
  • Ortho-K lenses are specifically designed and approved for overnight wear. They are different from standard contact lenses, which should not be worn while sleeping.

Benefits of Ortho-K:

‍

  • Complete freedom from glasses and lenses during the day
  • Perfect for sport, swimming, outdoor life and busy routines
  • Fewer symptoms of dry eyes and discomfort often caused by soft lenses
  • Suitable for children with progressing myopia (short- sightedness)
  • A more sustainable solution - just four lenses per year compared to hundreds of daily disposables
